Direct sun and chitting?

Now everybody is going to argue with me, but I think they do better in a shadier environment. Just a thought and experience of my own. No stress, they will do fine anyways.

For best chitting I keep them on the garage floor, Moggy, in cardboard.

is direct sun bad for chitting potatos or are they ok as long as its cold?

I'd say full light but direct sun should be kept to a minimum.

aye mine are still in the conservatory so ill have to move them when i get in from work

when people say cold is best ...how cold are we talking about?

In the shed on wood tray about four feet from south facing window, worked perfectly last year for an early feb planting.

I've put mine in the loft as its pretty darn cold up there but i don't think it will ever go below freezing like the shed does.
Only thing is it's very dark up there is that ok?

full light but direct sun should be kept to a minimum.

 

Have moved my spuds from the greenhouse into the unheated garage, about 2 feet from a largish frosted glass window.



 

Does that look about right now?  The angle is a bit wierd as I took it with my mobile but you get the picture!
